I need to give this one another look. I watched a few episodes a while back, and it wasn't bad, but it was weird. It felt kind of like watching interdimensional cable from Rick & Morty.
It's definitely not for everyone. My wife and I have a lot of overlap in our comedy preferences and are both big fans of SNL and everything Mitchell & Webb have done. On the other hand, I Think You Should Leave is my all-time favorite sketch show, but she couldn't even get through the first season. It's got a real sense of absurdism and weird social interactions that aren't for all tastes.
Don't feel bad if you can't get into it - there's tons of great TV out there. No need to waste your life on one show just in case you don't like it. If you weren't into the first few episodes you probably won't like the rest as it's all the same style.
Definitely give it another shot. It's my favorite comedy show of all time. I don't always fully appreciate them on the first watch though.
It's very much in the same vein as "Tim & Eric Awesome Show, Great Job", which you should also check out if you haven't already. Another great sketch show
